TL;DR

The challenge of operating on planet Earth

1. Technology: (Artificial lntelligence/Cognitive Analytics Drones, loT, Blockchain, Robot Process Automation, new payment methods, etc)

2. Regulatory pressure

3. Digital natives: The native digital customer has high expectations and less patience

4. NewTech: The deconstruction of the value chain and the birth of new business models

5. Everyone is your competitor: Competition without limits

6. Monetary policy

Q&A

• Oracle 之间的各个同行会进行一些合作吗，如果有的话一般是在哪些方面进行合作，我能想到的只有说互相充当各自的数据提供节点？

• Chainlink 现在一家独大算是一种中心化吗？

• 从预言机网络到预言机平台，这个能不能展开讲一下，或者说预言机接下来的发展方向有哪些，还有哪些新的技术进步？

• 老师，想请问一下，DeFi 平台需要 ChainLink 喂价，而 ChainLink 价格有从中心化交易所中选择，这是否意味着 DeFi 平台还不够去中心化？

• 老师刚才提到 CCIP，这个能不能展开讲一下为什么想到做链桥？

• Automation 在机制上会有一些风险控制吗，比如某个 DEX 的价格被操控了，但是同时用了 Automation 来执行清算，这种情况的话 Automation 会有抵御措施吗，还是直接就执行了呢？
